Descripción
El bus sale de sus oficinas en el pueblo de Fira y le lleva al puerto de Athinios.
El barco sale del puerto viejo de Fira y se dirige hacia la isla volcánica de Nea Kameni, que se encuentra a sólo 10 minutos de la bahía de Fira. El barco permanecerá allí durante 1 hora y 15 minutos. Esto le proporcionará tiempo de sobras para subir andando hasta los cráteres activos del volcán y tomar algunas fotos – esto le llevará unos 20 minutos. Vale la pena llegar a la cima para presenciar las fumarolas del volcán y el intenso olor a azufre.
La siguiente parada es en la isla de Palaia Kameni, donde se encuentran las aguas termales. El barco ancla a pocos metros mar adentro en la pequeña bahía de Agios Nikolaos, se bajará una escalera hacia el agua y así tendrá 30 minutos para disfrutar de un baño revitalizante. Podrá nadar a una distancia de unos 30 metros de los famosos baños de barro de Palaia Kameni, los cuales se cree que tienen habilidades beneficiosas para la piel y para curar algunas enfermedades. La temperatura del agua es de 30-35 grados Celsius, pero se mezcla constantemente con agua de mar.
La isla de Thirassia será el siguiente destino de su viaje en barco, donde tendrá 2 horas de tiempo libre para nadar en las aguas cristalinas de Korfos o para degustar los platos locales en una de sus tradicionales tabernas. Usted podrá caminar o hacer un tour en burro hacia el cercano y pintoresco pueblo de Manolas que cuenta con calles estrechas - las vistas a Santorini desde allí hacen que la visita valga realmente la pena.
Durante el viaje de regreso al puerto antiguo de Fira, podrá disfrutar navegando cerca de los acantilados volcánicos de Oia y tendrá la oportunidad de capturar con su cámara un paisaje sencillamente único.
El autobús le estará esperando en el puerto de Athinios para llevarle de vuelta a la plaza central de Fira.

During the dinner you will be served by the pirates themselves while Captain Hook tells you about his adventures on the Spanish Main. But be careful, while you are eating, another ship is silently approaching in the darkness, preparing to board the galleon. No need to be afraid, Captain Hook discovers the enemy’s ruse and orders his men to take up battle stations, the cannon are ready to fire. Pirates armed to the teeth with cutlasses and pistols jump from the rigging down to the decks where a sword fight ensues between the crew and the enemy pirates with amazing sound and light effects. And all this excitement you’re bound to be feeling hungry so it’s time to sit down at Captain Hook’ s table for a banquet where you can feast on delicious meat and lobster as well as a buffet of salads, steamed vegetables, pirate rice, baked potatoes, grilled chicken and dessert. As well as unlimited Mexican drinks throughout the voyage.
Come with us on this adventure on the high seas.
The old port in Fira is accessible only:
By cable car: It is perfectly safe, it consists of 6 wagons and has capacity of 6 persons per wagon. During high season (April-October) it runs every 20 minutes. Single tickets cost €5 for adults and €2.50 for children.
On foot: You would need to walk down the famous 600 steps of the traditional road that connects the old port with the town of Fira. The descend takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on your physical condition.
By donkey: The donkeys used to be the traditional transportation way of the island. They go up and down to the old port of Fira frequently. A single ride costs around €5 per person and takes about 20 minutes. Most people prefer to take the donkey on their way up.
Take a barrel ride as you actually become part of the whisky making process. Journey through gently swaying fields of barley and on to the warmth of the Malt Kiln with its lingering smell of burning peat. Take great care to avoid being ground through the Malt Mill before being spun and mashed in the Mash Tun. Then it’s off to the turbulent wooden Washback with the sound of the sloshing Wash before the steaming and bubbling Pot Still. Breathe in the restful smell of the Oak Casks and the process slows down to the tick-tock of the passing years of maturation. You may spot one of our mischievous angels taking their “share” before your journey ends.
Discover the stories behind the secret and magical ingredient of time. As the years pass by preserving forever the stories and character of the people who made it, the whisky now begins to take on its amber hue, developing its complexity and taking on a smooth and lingering character.
